shows all tests and whatnot to be garbage. So if he did tailor a new package why not submit it?
And does it bug out with every update? Too soon to tell?

That is rated garbage because that is for Riot's official launcher. Riot's launcher uses the RADS system which the ace client (currently) does not use. However ace client is in the process of switching their client over to RADS. When this happens, the ace client will be broken and LoL unplayable until http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26924 <-this bug is fixed under wine.

^Thats all assuming someone doesn't maintain the old ace cleint once they switch over to the RADS system. I dont know if they would do that though just for the sake of linux users. Idk how complicated it is to update the ace client o.O

Soooo while its great theres a work-around to get it working I'd still encourage you all to vote for the app and the bug blocking the official launcher from working. Because this may only be a temp work-around.

On a side note guys http://appdb.winehq.org/votestats.php
LoL is one of the top 25 voted apps in the entire AppDB now!! (number 25 lol)
Considering all the programs and games that are in the AppDb thats pretty impressive

Download and install the 3.9 client, then extract the files from the 3.10 patch and copy them over to your 3.9 install folder (/home/you/.wine/drive_c/where ever you put it) and do the same for all the other patches. If there is a readme.txt or important.txt file in the patch, read it, it may have more detailed instructions. Essentially you just copy over files, thats pretty much it, but be sure to apply each new patch starting with the oldest to the newest.

Alright, I got to this point and thought I was doing everything right, but apparently not. I apologize for all the questions, but I've been at this for 7 hours now trying to get this to work, ha...

I got the 3.9 client installed, tested it, got to the login screen, everything seemed to work fine, so I moved on to the patching part. I extracted the 3.10 patch to the LoL folder in wine, then extracted the 3.11, and then the 3.12 and tried everything again, got to the login screen, and the only thing I get when I try to login is something like "client 1.36.36 not accepted by server"

Still can't do this because I still can't find Software Sources :P It is an installed application according to the Ubuntu Software Center, but it doesn't show up with my other usable applications.

in case no one pointed this out, click on applications, and it should be the last option. Ubuntu Software Center. From there go to edit, and then to software sources, and you should be able to add the ppa.

Isnt there supposed to be an installer for the patches? I havent used ace client recently but I never remember extracting the patch into my game folder

Hey,
Each patch should come with in a ZIP or RAR file. You extract those files and copy over the files into the client folder overwriting and replacing older files with their newer counterparts. I'm uploading my video tutorials today so hopefully it'll make this whole process easier.
Thanks

When I attempt to run the program, I encounter a program error. It says that it can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in Wine. I've tried to clean install and patch this twice already, so what could be happening, and how can I fix this?
